Renewed Purpose for the Weary School Counselor

School for School Counselors Podcast

As we near the end of the school year, it's easy to feel so, so TIRED. How do we power through the rest of the school year while maintaining our sense of purpose and joy for the work we do each day? It's a heavy topic, but an important one.
In this episode, I'll share my own end-of-year challenges, the things we can do to reset our mindset, and the approaches we can take to recapture our hope and purpose in our work, despite our current circumstances.
If you're due for some mental clarity or rejuvenation of spirit, this episode just might do the trick.
